Image quality is very good in JPEG and outstanding in RAW. Video is excellent. The general concept of a camera that bridges the point and shooter and the serious amateur is well executed. The touch screen control set

The editors didn't like
The absence of a proper viewfinder
Even as an option
Makes shooting in bright sunlight a hit and miss affair. The relatively low resolution and brightness of the LCD tends to blackout in sunlight
Abstract: Who wants a fashion-friendly selfie camera? Well then you will love the Samsung NX Mini. It is the perfect compromise in between a standard point and shoot camera, and a fancier DSLR. It IS a DSLR in fact, but more compact, looking like a point and shoot....
Compact, familiar body and control layout, Responsive touchscreen with some quick and useful controls, One-touch video recording, Useful controls while taking video, USB charging
Slow image processor and Micro-SD storage make drive mode extremely sluggish, Some touchscreen controls counter-intuitive or semi-functional, Lack of grippable areas means one-handed handling is awkward, Low-resolution LCD, Manual focus is a massive chore
The Samsung NX mini is an impressive camera purely because of the amount of technology that Samsung has managed to place inside such a tiny body. The system may be small (no pun intended) for now but the lenses currently available for the mini are of a hi...

With Samsung’s history of not so successful with camera, we were skeptical about the unit at first especially after learning that not many of them have failed in building something like this in a compact package. After using it for a month, we can easily...

Excellent Wi-Fi implementation. Slim design. Tilting touch-screen display. Sharp image output. Good high ISO performance. 10fps burst capture.
Limited physical controls. A little slow to focus in dim light. Poky startup speed. Limited lens library. External battery charger not included
The Samsung NX Mini is a compact, Wi-Fi-connected mirrorless camera that runs circles around smartphones, but manual control is a bit of a chore....
Long battery life, Surprisingly good dynamic range, Outputs great looking JPEG photos, Simple Wi-Fi sharing options,
Poor handling of highlights in post, With only three lenses, the NX Mini's future is questionable, Metering performance is poor and unreliable, Expect to edit Raw images a lot in post
We rate this camera 3 out of 5.At the end of the day I realized the NX Mini was not made for me. It's not made for gearheads or anyone looking for a lighter package to complement their full-frame camera. No, the NX Mini is designed for shooters looking to...
